Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a large bowl, cream together butter, sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
Add eggs and vanilla; beat until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, salt, and baking soda.
Gradually add dry mixture to the wet mixture, mixing just until combined.
